there is a difference between judging and degrading someone because of the colour of their skin i.e. how they were born and something they cannot change, to someone with stupid ideas - most times you can change peoples ideas by highlighting their ignorance with reason, common sense and hopefully they'll have enough to think it through and change for the better.
all electrical street lighting has the capability to double up as a charge point. charge points can also be installed on sidewalks, car parks etc and once these are all over the place, high density areas won't be such a problem as a lot of high density area dwellers don't always have cars or need to have cars because of the advent of car loan outfits like zipcar
they wouldn't discharge the whole battery. the discharge will be shared by multiple EVs and there will be a configurable setting to say just how much charge they can take. And they will only take when the power usage spikes so from midnight on they probably won;t be taking from the EVs
"Every dollar we spend today on preventing climate change is a dollar we aren't spending on innovation and economic growth." - errr... why can't the innovation and growth be part of the "prevention of climate change" e.g. power storage systems, solar power, wind, etc etc Seems like the only growth industries are renewables at the moment
"Residential and personal energy usage in the US and Western Europe are meaningless contributors to climate change." possibly but its encouraging change with power generation at the grid too.
"The "fossil fuel industry" doesn't care much; they have already hedged their bets" - they didn't care at all but now a lot of the big companies like Shell are beginning to invest in renewables as they see the writing on the wall
over population might not be down to just "numbers" - wait for large human migrations from the extreme hot areas getting hotter (and lack of water in those places) to cooler more habitable places.
just because you don;t like the facts turned out by Rei does not make it "trollish, flamebait behavior." - you're the one with the problem if you can't separate facts from fiction. all you have to do is refute his points with facts, trolling, name calling etc is a childish response.
because it might veer back into traffic or onto a pavement crowded with pedestrians? Its driver error if he did not obey the "get your hands back on the wheel" warnings.
a lot of countries outside the USA are proposing no more sales of ICE cars around 2025 and beyond. Seems like Norway is starting the trend https://www.independent.co.uk/...

nope, go back to the time before cars and see the mess they lived in - https://www.historic-uk.com/Hi...

maybe you need to do more research to get a better idea of the proposal and how it works rather than creating scare stories of how it would work
its a lot more than that. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... its also about creating multiple micogrids to manage a 2 way distribution of power
they wouldn't discharge the whole battery. the discharge will be shared by multiple EVs and there will be a configurable setting to say just how much charge they can take. And they will only take when the power usage spikes so from midnight on they probably won;t be taking from the EVs
the point would be to have both home battery and EV. the battery can service the home and the EV battery be available to supply the grid if needed
USA is only one of the the worst offenders in the "per capita" sense (i.e. its cheap so use it), not the whole of the USA as a country.

climate change deniers are all about "Nature/ecology be damned."
already did that when they moved PC manufacturing out to the far east.

its a pointless exercise posting specific stock market fluctuations as they'll be out of date as soon as you post

Not really, Rei just doesn;t put up with cr*p from anti-tesla trolls and tries to educate you at the same time.
and Land Rover
yes, especially if its in the fast lane of the motorway. Turning the radio on and loud might be better

so you its upto everyone else to do something while you sit on your hands selfishly adding to the problems.
lets not pretend that firearms are regulated to prevent idiots getting and using them to kill unarmed people
